PhD Student in Thin Film Condensed Matter Physics (Index-Nr. 3502-03) Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland

ETH Zürich’s FERROIC Lab (Laboratory for Functional Ferroic Materials) is offering a postdoctoral position in ultrafast laser spectroscopy of quantum materials. The group develops and applies advanced spectroscopy across the terahertz to ultraviolet spectral range to explore fundamental non-equilibrium phenomena in condensed-matter systems, with a particular focus on strongly correlated electron materials and emergent dynamics far from equilibrium. The project investigates how intense ultrafast ...

Open PhD position at the University of Zurich in the Department of Physics with Christian Tzschaschel , Research Group Leader. The project is centered on ultrafast dynamics of quantum materials using femtosecond laser spectroscopy . The successful candidate will have the opportunity to develop and run advanced pump–probe experiments and investigate emergent electronic and magnetic phenomena . This opportunity is especially relevant for students interested in physics , materials science , and exp...

PhD position at the University of Basel in the Quantum Opto-Electronics Group (QOEG), led by Prof. Dr. Tomasz Smoleński in collaboration with Prof. Martino Poggio. The project addresses local sensing of collective spin phases in semiconducting moiré materials, a rapidly developing platform in condensed matter physics where twisted or lattice-mismatched van der Waals monolayers form flat-band systems with tunable collective quantum behavior. The research combines optical spectroscopy with SQUID-o...

PhD opportunity in Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Tennessee with research directions in quantum materials , thin films , neutrons , and magnetoelastic materials .
